The Trust for Public Land ParkScore® index analyzes public density of individuals in households with income less than 75% Moderate
access to existing parks and open space. The analysis of city median income (San Antonio less than $35,000), and Park with public access
incorporates a two-step approach: 1) determines where there population density (people per acre). (Might include only partial representation of a park
with public access along the city's border)
are gaps in park availability, and 2) constructs a demographic Other parks and open space
profile to identify gaps with the most urgent need for parkland. The combined level of park need result shown on the large map 10-minute walk (half-mile) service
Park gaps are based on a dynamic 1/2-mile service area (10- combines the three demographic profile results and assigns the area of park with public access
